 Wii Wheel May 2, 2008

We got this for an extra for Mario Kart Wii. It seems to work pretty well. I have an easier time playing the game with the wheel. It's pretty basic, no parts to break really, so it's pretty durable.
Surprisingly Useful April 29, 2008

The concept of a Wiimote wheel was just plain hilarious. And very easy to poke fun of. Why do you need a plastic wheel that's detached from anything? Are you going to drive with it at the top of your head? Then there's the fact that they went through 20-iterations or so to design the wheel. And then you can go on and on about how complicated is it to design a wheel. It's not like they needed to reinvent the wheel.
But then I actually used, and surprised surprised it was fantastic. It felt natural to use the wheel and the wiimote together. It's comfortable and the response was just seamless. It was especially useful at keeping me from over steering as I wont to do in previous mario kart game. So yes, the wheel is definitely worth it. I don't know how people with different hand sizes feel about the wheel, but it perfectly suited mine.
Great Add On April 28, 2008

I was skeptical about how it would feel holding a stirring wheel in the air and maneuvering through traffic...I was wrong. Within seconds, you forget you are holding the wheel and you are just focused on the race. This was a great addition to modernize one of my favorite games of all time (Mario Kart).
Best quality wheel accessory out there June 2, 2008

This is the best wheel out there. I bought another one and the quality is just not the same. This wheel has a cut out so that you can still use the remote in the wheel to select menu function outside the wheel game. It has a good, heavy duty feel to it.
Definitely adds to the experience June 7, 2008

I was a bit skeptical about the Wii Wheel at first and thought that it was just a pretty piece of plastic to hold the Remote. But when I used the Wheel that came with the game I was surprised by how much it added to the experience. Turning the Remote on its side and using it as a steering wheel without the Wheel is awkward and can be difficult to handle for less experienced gamers. When I play Mariokart with my bf, who just began playing video games, I let him use the Wheel, but I'm always a bit sad to go without and will be buying a second one soon.
